Neighborhood

About five miles south of Downtown Chicago, Bronzeville is a historic district containing six structures on the National Register of Historic Places. Prominent figures such as Gwendolyn Brooks, Sam Cooke, Ida B. Wells, and Louis Armstrong helped shape Bronzeville into the cultural and progressive community it is today.

Public art fills the streets of Bronzeville, from vibrant murals to elaborate sculptures, most of which line Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Drive. Lakefront recreation abounds at Burnham Park. The Illinois Institute of Technology lends unique architecture and intellectual pursuits to the neighborhood. Lake Meadows Shopping Center provides an outdoor haven for all kinds of retail delights.

Bronzeville is also notable for its proximity to major amenities such as Guaranteed Rate Field, Washington Park, the University of Chicago, Museum of Science and Industry Chicago, McCormick Place, and Arie Crown Theatre.

Lived here for 22 years

This was a really nice place to live until Eastlake Management ran it into the ground as they tend to do with all their properties. It was a REAL community with a playground, a candy store and homework lab for the children. The elders were respected and looked after. We took care of each other. We would have BBQ'S and celebrations. Eastlake changed ALL of that. They stopped doing any real repairs. The laundry room only has 1 working washer for 96 apartments. Now there's a a RAT infestation. You can hear them in the walls. Most of us old tenants have moved on it's just sad to see what's become of a place so many of us loved to call home.
